Working now for three decades, prolific filmmaker and language artist Stephanie Barber has developed a vastly intricate body of work—encompassing film, video, performance, poetry and music—of a nearly unprecedented scope and range. Tending toward the miniature, Barber’s disciplined, hermetic and haiku-like work fuses freeform formalism with inventive explorations of language, narrativity and presence, pleasurably perplexing viewer/participants with conundra of creative wordplay and digressive philosophy while probing the porous boundaries between performativity, sincerity, intellect and emotional affect. Barber appears this evening in person to present a career-spanning cumulus of ten works 1997–2023 ranging from ‘90s era optically-printed films to recent poetic video essays and sculptural works including long-unseen classics and recent favorites.
